Roger was a great tour guide with a lot of knowledge about New York. He didn’t rush us through the tour. After the tour , he made sure we knew how to get where we wanted to go afterwards. Would definitely recommend.

    This was an excellent tour if you want to see New York City all in one day. You get to hit all the hot spots.

    Wonderful guide / wonderful city

    tiffany_g, Dec 2025
    It was a wonderful experience, we loved every place he took us too. The only only downside to the experience was it was cold and if you have issues waking don’t do it. We walked for 6 plus hours. But we knew this ahead of time and was more than ready and dressed for the experience. ROGER The guide deserves 10 stars he was amazing. He knew us each individually by first name. Always offered to take photos of us. ROGER was such a cheerful person who wasn’t just there bc he had to be. We had a blast because of him. He was funny. He was very knowledgeable and gave us information and history to each stop. If and when we go back ROGER is the one we are going with. He made our experience very personal. Even with a group of people. We weren’t rushed either. ROGER made sure we got back to our hotel/ final destination, shared his phone number to make sure. We all would highly recommend Roger!!

    A must do!!

    Kimberly_D, Dec 2025
    Our tour guide, Roger was absolutely amazing. He had us all laughing the entire time. He took so much time to make sure we had the right pics and was so knowledgeable about all of our stops!! I would highly recommend this, especially if you want to see the most of NYC!

    Sarah_S, Oct 2025
    Tom took us to all of the NYC highlights and provided some wonderful history and commentary along the way! Six hours seems like a long time, but it flew by! Every moment was enjoyable! Take any of Tom’s tours, and you will be in the best of hands!

    Pat went over the top as a tour guide

    Gary_G, Oct 2025
    The tour went on for over 6 1/2 hours and for most people that would probably be too much however Pat was unreal. Not only did he really know the citi having lived here all his life but shared it enthusiastically. One of the things I had underestimated was the impact Emotional impact. of the destruction of the twin towers. He was vivid in his description of what it occurred. He donates a lot of his time still this long after the terrorist attack. he was also very passionate about respecting by our actions. The fact that this has been well preserved and is a a memorial is vital important to be remembered.

    Wonderful walking tour

    Jilyn_W, Sep 2025
    This is great for first time visitors who love walking and want a nice overview of manhattan. Pat is a local, knowledgeable, kind guide. We enjoyed spending the day taking in the sights and learning about NYC ᵕ̈

    Knowledgeable and SAFE.

    Joyce_B, Aug 2025
    Born and raised NY native, Roger, was awesome. This was our last day in NYC and so glad that we ended with this excursion. Yesterday we took a bus around to get our bearings so we could fully appreciate all we saw today. He gave us an insiders view that as a tourist , we didn't see. He was extremely respectful and conscientious of the women and children in the group, keeping everyone together and safe. Wear comfy shoes! it's not hard walking, but you cover a lot of area. Well worth the time and $. Would definitely recommend. Roger is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to NYC. Also. when he recommends an eating place, you can bank on it! Great pizza (Artichoke Pizza)! Thank you Roger for keeping me safe! 🤎

    Amazing Tour with Roger!

    Michelle_R, Jun 2025
    Roger was an amazing tour guide! I highly recommend you ask for him! He’s very knowledgeable! He took pictures of my group of 3 and all the good places! He also knew where all the perfect picture spots were

    Best was the see the NYC highlights

    Robbie_W, May 2025
    Roger was a phenomenal guide. He had detailed historical information about each stop. Despite it pouring rain we loved all of it

    Excellent tour guide and tour experience

    Glen_W, Jan 2025
    Roger was an exceptional tour guide, relaxed although efficient, he kept everything calm (others don’t) and his knowledge of the city was outstanding. His willingness to answer questions and provide advice for our stay was very much appreciated. Would definitely recommend this tour to family and friends - Roger enabled us to see so much of the city in little time, but at no stage did we feel rushed. 5 star tour !!!

    Great!

    Chelsea_P, Dec 2024
    Lots of walking & got to see and learn about so many sights from a local guide. Small group of us on a rainy day. Guide Roger was great and made sure to take some photos and made everyone feel comfortable.

    Robert_W, Nov 2024
    Roger did an excellent job explaining the backstory and symbolism of the tour points. Especially at the 9/11 memorial. Also the tour maintained a good pace but was not rushed. Having good picture taking spots was great.

    Time well spent...

    patrice_j, Nov 2024
    My cousin and I had a Subway mishap which caused us to be an hour late to our tour. Our guide Roger was very understanding and remained in communication when possible and had us meet the group at the second stop. He was very informative and patient with the group and answered all questions with honesty and humor. He's a great photographer and ensured our excursion was fabulous. He's truly an asset to the company!

    Tour de force

    Alasdair_K, Oct 2024
    Roger, our excellent guide was the best part of a really interesting day. But the tour itself was as comprehensive as a 6/7 hour tour could be.
